That, my dear readers, is ME!!! NOT Michael Jackson, NOT some strange wig stand! I might just be slightly insulted...if I couldn't see the humor in things; which I CAN see the humor in things so I am completely NOT insulted. Don't ask why I chose that picture, it was all I had to work with at the time.Next is the very tricky, very complicated Two Truths. I went back, I reviewed, and I decided it was a bit too tricky. Therefore, everyone who took a gander at answering, earned 10 points a piece.
Now, let me summarize. The dog DID once, and only once, catch a baby skunk. However, that was NOT the reason that my mom needed to throw cash at me and tell me to quickly leave the house. That was not the one (of many) occasions in which we were kicked out of school/work.
Yes, that really did happen. However, the cause of it was actually a skunk being chased under the house by a neighborhood cat. The spray quickly came in through the vents and I quickly made my way out the house...not quick enough.
Oh, and that one time that the dog was sprayed by that baby skunk she caught? Yeah, it was the beginning of the end for her health wise. Yes, every time after that whenever she got wet she did smell like wet skunk. It was really kind of sad. There was no getting rid of that.
So, Lucy, Wrighty, Ida, you all earned yourselves 10 points each for that.
Then there is my weekly blunder that, well, I blundered :) I forgot to hide the comments from all of you but I am going to give you all the benefit of the doubt and give you all the full 8 points a piece.
So, before my next post (which will summarize our awesome Scavenger Hunt) I have your points added for the week as follows:
Wrighty 26
Ida 21
Lucy 18
Tracy 8
Kim 8

Okay, I have a funny skunk in the house story. Fortunately, it wasn't MY house. I have a friend who lives on the edge of town. Actually, this town is so small, everyone lives on the edge, but that is another story. Well, it seems she has a pet door for her two labs to go in and out of the house, right? One night a skunk decides to come in the house through the pet door. This woke the dogs up who began barking at the skunk, chasing it around the kitchen. Of course, the skunk, scared because of the barking dogs, were spaying there perfume all over the house. The commotion woke my friend up, and she jumped up on her bed screaming. I'm not sure what good she thought that would do, as she lived alone at the time. The dogs finally chased the skunk back out the pet door, but no before the kitchen, living room and one bedroom was soaked in skunk stink. It took some heavy duty cleaning, replacing all the draped and window coverings, and an ionizer to get the smell out of the house.
Ida-That is horrible for your friend. I would just move...it'd be much easier ;)
Did she get rid of the dog door after that?
